" Wow, what an experience! I stumbled upon Carnitas Los Dos Chingones during a casual outing, and I was not prepared for how amazing the food would be. The carnitas were incredibly tender, and the flavor was intense without being overwhelming. I tried their chilaquiles with green sauce, and it was an explosion of taste. The only downside was the seating, as it's limited. However, the food is definitely worth the wait. The team was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend a visit if you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here on a Saturday morning after watching a YouTube video about their chilaquiles. The line was quite long, but it moved quickly. I ordered a mixed plate with burritos and tacos, and honestly, it was worth every minute of the wait! The flavors were robust and authentic. However, the location can feel a bit sketchy at times, and parking is a challenge. Overall, a fantastic spot if you love genuine Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is legit! I've been craving authentic Mexican food, and this place delivers! The carnitas are simply the best I've had, and the chilaquiles are a must-try. They offer a variety of meats, which is fantastic. I had their spicy salsa, which was just right. Expect to wait if you come during peak times, but the food makes it all worth it. It's a cash-only place, which is something to remember. Can’t wait to come back with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time visiting this popular taco stand based on the recommendations of friends. The food definitely met my expectations. The carnitas were delicious, and the chilaquiles could have been spicier, but I enjoyed the dish overall. The service was decent, but they were a bit overwhelmed with the lunchtime rush. I parked a few blocks away, which was not ideal, but it's part of being in a busy area. Would recommend worth trying! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently decided to try Carnitas Los Dos Chingones after hearing such rave reviews. I went for their chilaquiles, which have a great crunch to them, and the carnitas were phenomenal—tender and juicy. However, I did encounter some issues with the service; it felt a bit chaotic during peak hours. Parking is also a bit of a hassle since it’s in a busy area. Despite these slight inconveniences, I still enjoyed the meal and would recommend trying their specialties! " (*Curated Review*)
